Manufacturer: Royal Copley
Royal Copley double parakeet figurine. Very attractive bird pottery! It is 7.5 tall x 5.5 wide and is shown in the RC book. The book shows 3 of these figurines; one is said to be marked: Spaulding, and other two are not marked. RC often just used paper labels which fell off over time. This item has 3 minor flaws but they really do not show unless you are looking for them; see photos 6, 7, 8. It has a tiny fleabite on bottom front rim; it has what I think is a clay separation line near the inner hollow part on left side of taller bird. Clay separation lines happen when the pottery is fired and the clay shrinks. Last flaw is on backside bottom which has a tiny 1/2 circle hairline. The figurine displays fine and is not an easy item to find according to the book. Price reflects the flaws. 2/15
